Somehow, regardless of what the church says otherwise it seems like the message we keep getting as congregational leaders is size matters, so we've come together to seek a different message and to identify and amplify the beauty and grace of small. Small churches. No matter the impact you think you're making, join us to hear more about small churches making big impacts with God walking right alongside. You're with the Small Churches Big Impact Collective.

Customer Reviews
Small podcast big message
I love the intimate conversational style of this podcast. It invites you into a friendly, thoughtful stream of ideas among prayerful, insightful clergy. While the focus is on small congregations, the themes and topics are applicable to the medium sized community that I serve- and I imagine for communities even of other sizes. Very refreshing. One note to listeners, have a pen and paper ready to jot down your thoughts and questions, this show will prompt them to the surface. Thank you for producing this awesome podcast for the church.
Very helpful!
Have really enjoyed the episodes thus far and the passion and practical wisdom the folks on the show are sharing with us. I have not (yet) served in a small parish as a clergy person, but I do serve on our Diocesan commission on ministry and we have been reflecting on how to better resource and serve our small parishes and the clergy that work with them. This will be a resource I share. Thank you.
I’m a Big fan of Small podcasts!
Looking forward to this series- and learning more about what small churches doing their best!
